I should have mentioned that one thing I'd like feedback on is my use
of "possessive case" (actually cases). I'm not really happy with this and
any suggestions may be useful for some of my other projects. What it's used
for, when no voice-changing occurs, is the 3rd role (inalienable possessor,
spatial point of reference, thing perceived, direct object of ditransitive)
after absolutive (patient, recipient, intransitive subject) and ergative
(agent etc.).
